KUALA LUMPUR: The ringgit and Bursa Malaysia performance continue to remains supported by China's reopening bounce, solid Chinese tourist and holiday data ...

The Malaysian Government Securities (MGS) and Government Investment Issues (GII) yields mostly decreased last week, moving between -15.3 bps to 3.8 bps overall. Yields mostly remained on a downtrend, amid the shorter workweek, as markets continued to digest Bank Negara Malaysia's (BNM) surprise rate decision. "Further along, we expect a more sustained recovery of foreign demand from the second quarter (Q2) of 2023 onwards, after major central banks complete their tightening cycles," the research firm further noted. "However, we reckon that risk-off sentiment could return should the upcoming US FOMC meeting (January 31 – February 1) result in the Fed reiterating its hawkish stance and signalling several more rate hikes to come. "The market is also focusing on China's Purchasing Managers Index (PMI) tomorrow for some confirmation bias that the outlook looks good, and the next leg lower on the ringgit will need to get driving my stronger growth as the reopening momentum is maturing a bit. "The ringgit may also be influenced by domestic macroeconomic data namely the industrial production index (IPI), labour, retail sales and trade under pressure for the rest of the week. "However, a hotter-than-expected reading may re-price the Fed's terminal rate higher and lift the greenback. "There has been a lot of positive enthusiasm towards the ringgit, so we likely see a bit of risk reduction rather than any untoward as the positive momentum should continue through H1 2023," he added. Innes said the ringgit movement has more to do given the markets have priced in Fed's interest rate cuts in the second half (H2) of 2023, and there is still a good chance the Fed holds the rates steady through 2023. The ringgit continued to tick higher for the seventh straight session ahead of the US Federal Reserve's (Fed) meeting on Jan 31 - Feb 1. "Still, the local bourse stuck in a bit of a wait-and-see mode, and it a similar story is unfolding, like the ringgit," he told the New Straits Times today. On the other hand, ringgit opened well but faded slightly as pre-Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) uncertainly entered the picture.

“Trading value declined by 41.5 per cent with ADV of RM2.1 billion in 2022 but this was still higher than pre-pandemic ADV of RM1.9 billion. “The board of directors approved and declared a final dividend of 11.5 sen per share amounting to approximately RM93.1 million. For the fourth quarter ended Dec 31, 2022, Bursa Malaysia registered a lower net profit of RM49 million as compared to RM64.95 million recorded in the same quarter a year ago, while revenue slipped to RM145.70 million from RM165.18 million previously. Meanwhile, the derivatives market trading revenue rose by 11.3 per cent to RM97.2 million in FY2022 from RM87.3 million in FY2021, in part due to higher collateral management fees earned, as well as higher number of crude palm oil futures and FBM KLCI futures contracts traded. Bursa Malaysia said the securities market segment registered trading revenue of RM263.5 million in FY2022 compared with RM442.9 million in FY2021, a decrease of 40.5 per cent, due to lower average daily value (ADV) traded for the segment’s on-market trades and direct business transactions. The decrease was due to lower overall trading revenue of RM377.1 million in FY2022, down 30.7 per cent from FY2021, while total operating expenses in FY2022 increased marginally by 1.4 per cent to RM292.7 million from RM288.6 million in FY2021.
